Kindiy Md Ftillng Rtmaiki to th« <3lrl« lVlio Loved Her fa Well— Onvo Good Advicef hot Will llolp In Altar l«lfo. (turn Athens. June 13.—<8peclal.)—The pplendid address delivered by Mis* Millie Rutherford Tuesday nlv',.before the graduating class liaa been highly complimented by all who .heard it, and the Telegraph (eels It but due this excellent lady ahd the 'friends of the splendid Institution to give a full syn opsis. Juet before Mr. L: BUI deliv ered the diplomas Miss Rutherford stepped out before the young ladles and said she wished to say a word In commendation of their work during the past session. They hsd It In their power to make the year a failure or a success; It Imd not been n failure, and as a class they had done faithful and conscientious work and she had no word of reproach for them. The com- petltnnn had been clone, and yet there had been no envious or ugly feelings exhibited. Each had seemed to rejoice In the other’s success, and this was an It ahould be, for what happiness could there bo In any earthly glory If se cured al the expense of anothor? "Vou leave the school with the love and good will of your teachers. You have shed sunshlno Into our home by your cheerful .acquiescence to rules and your loving courtesies to one an other. It Is sad that this parting must take place. No set of circumstances can ever bring us together again; but remember, my dear, girls, wherever yoi| are J ahall be Interested In all that befalls you. I shall take pride In you, and your alma mater shall take pride In you In proportion as you are truo to your Ood and true to yourself. It gives her pleasure to bettow upon you these testimonials of her love and esteem. Prove by your after life that she has not bestowed them unwor thily.' Miss Rutherford then gave the young ladles some excellent words of advleo mid warning, telling them that they need not think their sohnol days were over, for thoy liad Just begun—they wore now Just entering life’s real school, anil their tcadher, experience, would prove a hard taskmaster. Ex perience would muko no cxeuso for blunders and would offer no sym pathy for their distresses, but many valuable lessons would be taught under trials and dimcultlcs. Bhn told them to throw away the thoughtless ness of girlhood and to look seriously upon the future. Clod lmil wisely hidden from them whnt their lot In lire was to he, hu( their happiness wan largely In their own hands. In this age the respect paid to woman and the opportunities olTercd for scir-de- vtriopment left little room to dread grave dangers, except those a wonnin might call Inin existence liy her ob- stlnnte refusal to bo guided by the wisdom.of her parents or the precepts of Him who Is the Infulllhle teacher. If they would he their own counsellor and would walk In their own Imagined wisdom and bo guided by their own blind Impulses, they would surely find the roses of their fancy (Hied with thorns, which would not pierce their hands, but their hearts with deadly wounds. 8ho advised them to take the word of God os their guide through life; to follow the teachings of tlio greatest of nil teachers; to surrender self to Ills will, and they would have naught to foar; Ilia watchful providence would guard their every Interest anil Ills peace would make life worth the living. “Did I love you less." said the belov-d principal, "I should wish for you a life of esse, but none can live nobly and worthily unless they llvo a life of self-denial. Espednly Is this truo In the Christian’s life. One may find easy ways, but they ore not al ways tho best ways. If wo are not willing to umlertuko tlio rough climb ing In the Journey of life we shall nev er be able to catch a glimpse of tlio beauties that llo beyond. Ood In Ills wisdom prop*res us for this Journey." Miss Rutherford then touchingly re ferred to the blessings which Moses gave the children of Israel when Asher was given shoes of iron that he might climb the mountainous country In which he lived, snd she said that Ood would eee that they were shod to suit their needs If they deserved It at His hands. She told (hem net to Bhun the rough paths of life It Ood willed It that they should wulk In them, but to pray to Him for strength to pass over them unharmed. "Miss Willard." said Miss Rutherford, “says In ’How to Win’ ’If I were asked the mission of the Ideal woman I would say It is to make the world more home-llke,’ nml she thlnke that In order to purify’ ami make the government more hotuo-like It la necessary for woman to enter 1C As much as 1 admire Miss Willard In many respects, I must differ with her here. 1 tell you. roy dear girls, that while the power to purify the government dose not rest with wo man, It Is the power that Is given her nt the fireside. Next to your duty to your Ood Is ynur duty to your home. The government rvlll be In safe hands Juet oa long os tho mothers will do their duty In Instilling the right princi ples Into their children. Go to your homes, then, and aid your mothers lit carrying out the noble purpose that Ood hat ordained for them. In the piece of almlera reveries have a reso lute aim. Remember, as Dr. Lipscomb used to say, that if you throw* the right spirit Into your work, picking up chips will be as acceptable In the eyes of Ood as any service that an arch angel could perform, and remember also that among the many things for which the model woman In the Ulble was commended was these: •She ealeth not the bread of Idle ness; ‘she strelcheth forth her hand to the poor;’ ’in her tougue was th law of kindness;’ ’favor la deceitful and beauty la vain, but n woman that teareth the Lord the shall be praised Imitate the example of her of whom the 8avtour said: ’She hath done what she could.* Then when life is ended, there V1U be no regrets for time mis- spent. ■•Get thy dielaff and spindle ready, and Ood will send the flax. Then, spin carefully, . Not tearfully. Washington, June 16.—For Georgia: Showers; warmer; southeasterly winds. Though merrily you plod; Spin carefully. Spin prayerfully. But leave the thread: with God." When Miss Rutherford concluded her remarks to the young ladles there was scarcely a dry eye In the audience. Her beautiful words and peculiarly touching manner of delivery had touched the hearts of all, and all knew what she said came from the Inner most recesses of her heart. The scene was truly a touching one. 8he then advised the Lucy Cobb girls In the audience, and said that on tho 29th of November thero would be « reunion In Atlanta—Lucy Cobb Day at the expo sition. She desired to meet there the trustees, every teacher at any time connected with the school, every pupil, not only the alumnae, but every pu pil whose name had ever been enrolled. This reunion would bring together the children, grand-children, and great grandchildren of their alma mater, and stiff would be disappointed If she failed to see everyone of them there. Then came the saddest blow when this beloved woman said: •1 suppose you all know that tonight I sever my odlclal connection with Lucy Cohb. f have felt that It was wise to tender my resignation to the trustees, and they have been kind enough to accept It. Although 1 am no longer principal, as long ns life shnll last will I be Interested In all that pertains to the welfare of the school. I nm thankful that It falls into worthier hands than mine. Mrs. Lips comb indeed has been during all these past years, the better principal of the two. I could not have done the work. Aid her In every way posalblo by your hearty co-operation.” * Miss Rutherford expressed her deep appreciation to the citizens of Athena for their sympathy and support during the years which she has been connect ed with the school. She said their patronage had been liberal, and their criticisms In the main very kind. The Incoming principal, she had every rea son to believe, would receive equally as generous and .kind treatment. The citizens knew Mre. Lipscomb too well to withhold It. She begged that crit icisms of oil kinds be withheld until well assured of all the facts, as she herself has boen so often misrepre sented. Just here bliss Rutherford said she wished to say a word to the Univer sity boys. Some of them hat’, felt that she was their enemy, but all along she had been their friend. Her child hood and girlhood days had been passed upon tho campus. Her father was for more than thirty years n pro fessor In the University, and she had been mid would ever be Interested In Its success. "I have never," she said, ‘blamed the University at large for the mischief and disrespect shown me by a few bad-mannered boys, I have said and felt that the better thinking men of tho college condemned such conduct ns much as I did. I have vis ited many colleges and universities, Including Oxford and Cambridge, Eng land, Berlin and Heidelberg, Germany. I have Inquired with Interest regard ing tho discipline and conduct of the students, ami I have found nowhere any who, taken ns a whole, were as free from vices as our Georgia Univer sity boys. To the boys Who have giv en me offense, If they uro present, and I think I see some of them, let me beg that you shall be kinder to Mrs. Lipscomb than you have ever been to me. Homemlier that there are only ladles nt thy Institute and It behooves true gentlemen to be their protectors, not their tormentors. I havo fre quently watched you at your work and yet have been powerless to pre vent you." Miss Rutherford sntd she could not leave without a tribute to one of her girls, through whose nobleness of heart and warm Impulses they owed tho beautiful chapel In which the cx- erctses were being held. Fourteen years ago her pleading letter touched the heart of a grand and philanthropic gcntlrmun, who responded quickly to her request for aid. He gave the money not only for tho chapel, but the sweet toned argun and eighteen valua ble paintings from his own art gal lery. Thcso gifts gavo an Impulse to tho school and had done much good In making It what It wns. Miss Ruther ford asked that tho name of Miss Nel lie Stovall, now Mrs. Ulllups l’hlnlxy of Athens. Mr. George I. Scney. lato of New York, never be forgotten by the children of Lucy Cobb, and that It they were ever able she wanted built a Seney-Stovall muslo and art ball as a monument to them. To tho trustees of the school Miss lluthreford Bald she could not express her apreclatlon of all that they had enabled her to do. No school ever had a better set or trustees. They had been willing to bear the responsibility und blarr.o whenover It lmd been thrust upon them, and they had claim ed none of the glory. They had left Inr unhampered to do what she thought beat for the school and had shown tlielr Interest by an ever-readl- ness to do all that was asked or re quired. Since her election In 1860 death had claimed thro* of the trustees, Mr. John H. Newton, president of the board. Dr. Long and Mr. A. M. Scud- dor: only txvo of the original number remaining. Col. Harrow and MaJ. Cobb. She expressed great pleasure that Col. Harrow was able to be present and said that she had been .told that to him she was Indebted for her election as principal. If tliera was aught to com mend tn the management of the school It was to be laid as a tribute at his feet: It aught to condemn sho must rondone for blunders. Miss Rutherford closed with a beam tlfully touching tribute to the teach ers. She said that no principal ever had truer helpers or more sympathis ing friends. They had been faithful companions In her Joys and her sor rows. and It was a grief too deep for utterance to bid them farewell. The AT VANDERBILT. Well-Known Conductor Had a Lively Eipericnce With Negroes, A BLOODY FIGHT, * Bsrlr Stgro OMnliwl tho Conductor With a I.oo.l.a stick, bat Was Arrettod and Locked Vp at Portytb, Conductor T. J. Harris had a lively experience with a dangerous negro on the Central railroad near Smarr’s Sta tion yesterday. As a result of the encounter Mr. Harris now has a mutilated scalp. The negro struck him In the head with a loaded cane. Cuffy Is now In Jail at Forsyth, and will have to prove that he is not guilty of assault with Intent to murder. As the northbound Central train was on tts way to Atlanta yesterday even ing with Conductor Harris In charge, a crowd or negroes boarded the train at Bollngbroke to attend a camp meet ing at Smarr’a Station. Beveral of the negroes took positions on the platform of the negro coach. The conductor went out and asked them to go Inside. They paid no atten tion to the request. When Mr. Harris returned and found them still there, he repeated his re quest, stating that they must go in side. One of the negroes had a cane In his hand made from the butt er)d of a buggy whip. With this he made a des perate slash at the conductor, and re peated the slashes until he cut a severe gash In Mr. Harris' forehead. The wound was very painful and bled free ly. Without attempting to hurt Cuffy, Mr. Harris seized and dragged, him Into the coach, and with the help of other members ut the train crew, he bound the negro hand and foot and carried him on through to Forsyth, where the negro was turned over to the officers, who entered a charge of assault with Intent to murder. The negro refused to give his name. Other negroes on the train made a slight attempt to help Cuffy, hut the appearance of white relnforcementa from tig: white people's car prevented any more serious disturbance. t In New York Completely Destroyed by Fire This Morning.

SCRUGGS SAYS An effort Is being made to collect more poll tax from the residents of Bibb county. Several prominent citizens of the county have been discussing the sub ject and trying to devise a means by which the public school fond may be Increased from this source. In bis speech at the Walden High School commencement the other day. Judge Hardeman made an eloquent ap peal to the good citizens of the county to take the matter In hand. Among other things on the same line. Judge Hardeman said: "I appeal to the public-spirited men In this county to see that the poll tax Is collected. It Is within your pow er, and you should attend to IL Out of 9,000 men In the county only 2,000 pay the pitiful sum of 21 a year. Thus the county school fund loses 27.000 a year. And many of these defaulters are sending.their children to the schools, be It said to their disgrace and shame." During the past day or two much comment has been' made upon the- fact to which Judge Hardeman allud ed. and several plans have been sug gested for correcting the evil. A great many people attribute the trouble to the lateness of the time at which the tax Is attempted to be col lected. Many people look upon the payment of tho tax as the purchase of a right to vote; that If they do not vote they owe no poll tax. Because of the feature of the law which prohibits voting by those who do not pay the tax a great many of the votero of the county have become disfranchised, and In addition the school fund suffers. No attempt is made to collect the poll tax until tenants have made their arrangements to move each year, at which time many have spent all their cash money, and reconcile their con sciences to failure to pay the tax, on the ground that they do not vote. An effort Is now being made to have the tax collected earlier In the year, and to impress upon the people that they owe the tax regardless of the vot ing franchise. REV. F. F. REESE. An Interesting Sermon at Christ Church Yesterday. Rev. F. F. Reese preached a most Interesting and broad-minded sermon at Christ church yesterday morning. A large congregation assembled to hear the words of wisdom falling' from the lips of this talented minister. The text was taken from Genesis 1!1.;6. "And when the woman saw the tree was good for food and that It was a delight to the eyes, and that the tree was to be desired to make one wise, she took of the fruit thereof, and did oat, and she gave also unto her hus band with her, and he,did cat.” Some accept this narrative as ltteral facL while others assert it to be pure allegory. Whatever may be one's opinion about It, that oplnton cannot affect the Inner truth contained In the allegory. The aim of the story Is to trace the moral history of mankind from Its fountain head, and to picture tho transactions of the soul with Its deep consciousness of evil; these facts no re ligion or philosophy creates. They are the universal testimony of men's con sciousness. With the question of life it self :s allied the question of moral dis cord of life. Before the first concep tion of moral nature arises this con sciousness of discord Is felt. Strange as It may seem, there Is everywhere a faint, suggestive hope of redemption, a looking forward to moral victory and perfection. The Bible deals with these truths. They have engaged the think er, the philosopher, prophet and Beer. The story Beta forth tn vivid but al legorical form the evolution of the origin of this human tragedy. This Is no local myth, narrow, temporal, but gives place tc a deeper insight and more penetrating philosophy. What ever may be the truth as to the origin of man—whether full made by the cre ative hand or by the process of evo lution. there must have been a stage «... , , _ , In hls development similar to that In- COflStcintiy InCrORSinCT U6ff dlcated In the first chapters of Gen- | ° , “Hi. life was on a plane w„h h.smen- ! ^ f ° r tf » 0 ' tal and physical needs.’nolntrospectlon had opened to him as yet the secret of hls own being.

The record of remarkable cures effected enables us truthfully to say that He Had a Talk With President Cleve land—What He Said. New York, June 17.—A special to the World from Atlanta, Ga„ says: "Ex-Minister W. L.

"It Is said he singly urged the president to make a vigorous declara tion on till- line of the Monroe doc trine. Col.
